What is the minimum temperature of the engine coolant required to start the engine?JA: What is the complete model and serial number of your machine?Customer: Cummins generator model GGMA-1337785 serial J130573328JA: Are you fixing this yourself? What have you tried so far?Customer: What we have found is that the block heaters are cooking off the coolant and they are also burning up frequently. We would like to install a thermo cube to turn the block heater on at 35 degrees and off at 45 degrees but not sure if that is too cold to start reliably.JA: Anything else you want the equipment mechanic to know before I connect you?Customer: That should do it. Thanks
